The two-week preceptorship is a partnership between Manipal College of Nurses in India and the UNB Department of Nursing. Seven students will be on the frontlines at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital and at a Shannex LTC home, working alongside practicing nurses and seeing first-hand the differences between the two healthcare systems. UNB created four courses for the students to take between their third and fourth years in India, centred on the Canadian healthcare system, social justice and clinical judgement, as well as some Indigenous teachings. The aim is for those students to graduate and return to Canada as fulltime nurses.
